Hi

When i bootup my htpc it automatically starts mediaportal, and both mediaportal and tv-server work fine. But when I quit mediaportal (which happens a lot atm since I'm still configuring it) it won't start again. it hangs at "loading window plugin" or "loading skin". The only way i can make it get any further is by closing "tvservice.exe" in the taskmanager, then it imidiately finishes the loading. It also occur when i want to open the plugin section in "mediaportal configuration"; If "tvservice.exe" is allready running, i'll have to close it before it shows the plugin section. And sometimes when i have edited some settings in the configuration (no matter which settings), it hangs (not responding according to taskmanager) when i press "ok" until I close "tvservice.exe".

I cannot connect to the server with my laptop either. I uses MPTvClient and it connects okay (sometimes it retrieves the channel list, sometimes not) but then MPTvClient stops responding until i close "tvservice.exe" or until it times out with an "server did not respond" error.

I hope you'll be able to help me, 'cause I'm a little lost here...

Thank you

Hi,
I am not an expert but it looks like tvservice can't establish connection to sql db. Have a look at application event log and see maybe there is a problem with sql rather than tvservice.
How do you connect to network, cable, wireless adaptor?

I don't know how to check the sql server?

my 2nd client is a laptop connected through wireless, but since the problem also occurs when running mediaportal on the server machine, i cannot see how the network connection can possible be the problem.

I can record, timeshift and watch tv just fine when mediaportal succesfully connects to the tv server.
